Sorry I haven't bought from that store either so I really don't know :c
It seems like it's made from kankelon fibers so it shouldn't really tangle as bad as FS's but all long wigs tend to tangle you just have to care for it.

My current order has a bunch of C.C. Kids wigs in it so I'll know once it comes and post comparisons of them too but that's all I know.

Okay, thank you very much for the information^^

Fantasy Sheep is generally a good wig store in my opinion you just got to keep in mind that the wigs most likely would be darker than the pictures so if you're looking for a lighter shade find the lightest shade possible! Fantasy Sheep does have it's cons for example I'm not too fond of their fiber though most of their wigs are heat resistant (HR) they tangle easily even after straightening, and most wigs from them have a poofyness to then like they were teased a lot which I find annoying because it makes your head look quite fat especially if you don't properly tuck your hair in a good wig cap. Their quality is not excellent for example their wigs are lighter (weight wise) than this korean wig I have you can tell that the korean wig is more heavier because it has more wig fiber than FS to give it volume FS usually teases their wigs to give it the look of more volume more product

Unlike some wig stores FS's wigs usually take well to FLASH photography so they will look lighter than they are in real life, the REALLY SHINY wigs for example from Ghost Cos aren't good with Flash because it will make it look tacky and cheap (I'm not saying all wigs from ghost cos is bad you just got to keep in mind to look carefully at the products).

I don't believe that you'll get a TOTALLY OFF DIFFERENT COLOUR from FS if you're looking carefully, probably it'll be like for a normal blonde wig it won't be BROWN once you get it, it'll probably be just deeper in colour to a like brown-blonde ish or a golden yellow toned blonde

You'll end up developing the ability to decipher which wigs will be right eventually after consistently looking at wigs for a period of time.

There are more stores out there than Fantasy Sheep which is why I posted more stores for you guys so you can have a greater variety when you come to a final decision in choosing a wig If you don't like FS don't go with it! OO: trial and error~~~

Well, when I got this wig from Fantasy Sheep, it looked like... well, look at my avatar. Thats the wig.

The fibers are kind of prickly, which was weird. And its not a skin top, it has a strange array of fibers that kind of... look odd if you're not wearing it. But as soon as its on my head, it looks SO natural. People thought it was my real hair. If it weren't for the haircurl, I'd probably just wear it normally. It wasn't tight either, so it didn't hurt my head.

I really recommend that wig to anyone cosplaying America. But... I can't say that for all Fantasy Sheep wigs. I'll be buying their fem!Italy wig when its back in stock next month. Then I'll tell you if my opinion still stands.

I've only bought one wig from them, but it's brighter in person, as opposed to their stock images. c:


To join in on the Fantasy Sheep discussion, I've bought quite a few wigs from them. Somewhere around ten, I think. All but two were short, and only four of them did not have a skin-top (Greece, Prussia, ANTI-THE∞HOLiC!Rin, and Teito). The two wigs that weren't short were chest length, and any tangles that appeared were easily removed by simply combing through it with my fingers.
For color, the only one that didn't appear to be very similar to the stock images is the one meant for Greece. It's is a couple shades darker, which was for the best, as it was for my sister, and the color was the only thing about it she wasn't entirely happy about.

I'd do comparison shots on all of them, but I've sold some, or they were gifts for other people. xD;


@Axelai I love their Fem!Italy wig. Which makes me really sad it's my sister's wig and not mine. xD
The only real problems we've found so far, is that it doesn't have the curl, and bouncing around does like to really mess with the beautiful curls the clip has.

I've bought from C.C. Kids a few times, through their eBay shop, and in my experience the colors are very true to the image provided. I own this one and this one, and I just ordered this wig to supplement my current wig from Cosplaywig. I have images of both in my gallery here and on Facebook if you want to see them in action. Be warned: I have very yellow lighting at home, so the Miku wig looks a little green, but it photographs as an aqua blue under fluorescents.

As for Fantasy-Sheep, I'd recommend them for wig quality. I own both the Bianchi and Yoko wigs, and I love them. They're soft and thick, which is what I love best about F-S wigs in the first place. If that shop supplied wigs for more of the characters I cosplay, I'd probably buy more from it.

Give it a few days, sometimes they take a while to answer XD I usually grow impatient and just order with an agent anyways since I want to order right away so lol.

Despite the "very yellow lighting", both wigs still look pretty true to C.C. Kids' photographs so thank you for the information, and for the photo comparison^^

I wouldn't recommend cckids unless you want shiny and do a lot of styling because they got thin wigs >.<
I guess its kind of like a gamble when you buy cckid's wigs, sometimes its shiny, sometimes not.
I own a short blonde wig from her, thank god it was not that shiny, but its quite thin for the price I bought(thru eBay).
However, my two friends both own 2 wigs from her too, and they are extreme shiny. One of the wigs is the Sebastian wig)got it from taobao), very pretty in the picture huh? When it got here I was extremely disappointed. It had to be a party city wig. Yes, it was THAT shiny. pretty much glowing when I took it out of the bag. Not only that it was shiny, the style didn't match the picture at all! the front bangs are kind of short and the wig is just thin. its impossible to style it like the stock picture.
my other friend owns a Mukuro wig(thru eBay), and again, shiny. not that thin so it was a ok wig.

Hi! Has anyone ordered from these taobao shops before?

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8906872950
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=7530554650
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=4898334349

if you did, are the colors close to what they are in the picture? and also when you order a pre-styled wig (like the 1st link), does the wig look a little weird when you receive them? like was it crushed in the package or anything?

its my first time ordering from taobao ^^;

[atlantisan]

Has anybody ordered from ayanamisatoru's taobao? Do they ship directly from China to the US or do you have to go through an agent/purchase off their ebay? I want to buy 2 wigs from them and I can sort of write/read a bit of Chinese but I'm not fluent, so it takes forever trying to decipher the writing on the front page.

Edit: Wrote them an email (in Chinese) and found out they do ship directly from China to the US :3

[Kitsoru]

If anyone has ever bought an updo wig from Fantasy Sheep, was the wigcap on the small/tight side or was it roomy? Usually I don't have any problems with wigcaps being tight as I have a small head, but I'm looking at a light colored wig and have dark hair so I want to make sure the cap would have ample room to hide my hair in.

[ajisaiareku]

I just received my bulk order of cosplay wigs. I'm going home to take photos of them and put them side by side for color comparison along with the shop I got them from. From the time of ordering through the agent (including the time it toke for them to invoice me and check stock) to when it got to my doorstep it took 2 weeks :3

[Bry-Chan]

Do any of the taobao sites sell wefted extensions?
